      Yes the other solar more with a fixed cameras I have i've never charged it, 2 years now it's always at 100-97% battery it is really install and forget about it. The only thing is the white plastic is now more cream coloured from the sun. Vera loves to help and see what i'm up to, always! Oh cool your bother I hope finds this interesting.

  • @romantashevRT
    @romantashevRT 11 месяцев назад +1

    Well...camera tracking function. But what if the person is out of the frame? Is it going to be detected? There are no sensors around the camera body. The sensor is only inside the frame what the camera sees. So, it can track the person if he is already within the field of view, but not detect it if he is out of sight. I wish next model to have this. It will be perfect scenario with no blind spots.

    Hi, I'm also using this S340 solocam for a few weeks now. It's working is fine, but I think the solar panel is not working suffient because my battery looks like its draining (below 75% now and no signs of charging in the dashboard whatsoever). My setup is just like yours with the panel in early morning sunlight, the power source is external solar panel. Got some insights for me to possibly solve my power problem? [PS: when I set the power source to battery, what is the use of the solar panel right then? Does it charge the battery or somethink like that?]

    I live on a busy main road where the camera would be active pretty much none stop during the day. Being in the UK.. would the constant use have quite an impact on the battery? We are south facing and the sun is pretty much unobstructed throughout the day but wasn’t sure if this was meant for more back garden use where it wouldn’t be in use as often?

    sorry don’t really understand the purpose of having the telephoto lens that records half of a person’s body, while tracking the person, wouldn’t it be better if it tracks the person’s face as well, otherwise the footage is totally unusable, isn’t it?
